Colin Wolfe musical breakdown of 'The Chronic'

[The Predator]

Colin Wolfe demonstrates live, using a Moog keyboard and bass, how he created the musical parts for Dr Dre's iconic hip-hop album “The Chronic.”

[Okka]

It's crazy how a lot of people keep believing Daz and Warren G made the beats on "The Chronic", but most of them idiots don't even know who Colin Wolfe is. It's a damn shame. Oh, well.

ROYAL C album produced by him is a real bomb!

I still think Dre was doing some magic there cause just that keyboard sounds like a little kids keyboard from Fischer Price it doesn't sound like whatever Dre did to it

...and if Colin Wolfe was so great why didn't he do classics without Dre?

[TraceOneInfinite]

at like 13:00 when he just runs his hands across the keyboard it sounds like the beginning of "Just Doggin" by the Dogg Pound Sunset Park

[TraceOneInfinite]

HAHAH 

lol.. at one point in the second half Colin is like, "Yeah so that's how we made BITCHEZ AIN'T SHIT" and then this gay guy comes on the mic and is like, "umm yes, so I make opera music, so what advice do you have for me"

...and then they got this little white kid on stage jammin out to "DEEEZ NUTZ" it

Who is this guy who asked Colin about Daz?  Looks familiar

Colin Wolfe came around when N.W.A made "Efil4Zaggin". That's the first album he and Dre produced. If you don't hear what he brought to the table, I don't know what to tell you.

Yeah I thought it was me. 

I need to look closer at that.  I was shocked, I was like—"hey I don't remember being at this" but it wasn't me, because it was a black guy, but it's probably the same question I would've asked.  How does Daz go from being just some kid from Oklahoma who happens to be cousins with Snoop to being the second greatest producer in the history of flat earth.  Was he taking notes from you? 

Colin Wolfe gave Daz props he said Daz came up with his own ideas, Daz had his own ideas.   Of course, he makes a very common and annoying error and says "ideals" instead of "ideas" when ideals actually means things you believe in like being idealistic about changing the Earth and making it a better place.

Colin says he left after the Chronic album—and Dre didn't lose a step in the transition from producin Chronic to producin Doggystyle

What's your point exactly?

[TraceOneInfinite]

What's your point exactly?

it's called "anachronism" it's a commonly used comic trope.  So originally in its proper era the Chronic album was actually "scary" to the general public.  It represented gangsta life, the riots, crime, violence, misogyny, this that were considered dangerous to the general public.  And now it's being spoken of so casually on what looked like a college campus, with a young boy playing the music on stage supported by his father and right along side a gay opera singer.

I happpened to find some humor in that, but you're illiterate so its 6 inches above your eyelids and you can't see skywards (Canibus)

exact same MOOG you're hearing, it's being played  in a auditorium and the sound is not engineered. Colin Wolfe made some sick beats on Heltah Skeltah by D.O.C. too bad the Voice of D.O.C. makes the tracks cringe worthy.

by far best Dr Dre album and producing. shame ,people dont know Colin Wolfe is behind the chronic ..

I agree but Doggystyle and Dogg Food are both right up there with The Chronic in terms of production and he wasnt there for those

Colin definitely deserves his respect but lets not disparage Dre
